Hernandez vs Gronk (1 Viewer)

Gents, I remember there being a thread last year that predicted which NE TE to start each week with staggering success. Does anyone remember who posted the info or where they got it from? Can you please post it here?

Thanks

 
The theory from last year was play Hernandez vs man-to-man and Gronkowski vs zone defenses.

I believe the theory originated here

So does Miami play primarily man-to-man or zone?

Depends on your scoring system IMO: PPR - Hernandez, TD heavy - Gronkowski. That's the first cut. After that, look at the zone vs. man from last year (see above).

Sweet. Wish I had both, but that's a good reference. Can't wait to see how it shakes out this year!

Can anyone answer this for us please?? I've got both Gronk and Hernandez, but can admit that I'm clueless when it comes to what type of defense Miami plays. Thank you fellas.
 
Was a very interesting article, thanks for bumping as I missed it the first time around.

However, I don't think it is a given that Miami (or any team, for that matter) strictly stays with a single D approach during the game. They may largely start with one, or have a historical preference (e.g. my Raiders favor m-t-m), but given that the game is so dynamic, adjustments come series-to-series, and half-to-half, so while I like the idea of looking for macro-patterns in a way a team approaches D in general, I'm skeptical that this formula will hold true in terms of deciding whether Gronk or Hern is going to be the better play.
